More Support For Endyke-Doran School Committee Run: Letter

The following letter to the editor does not reflect the views of Sudbury Patch

My Name is Peter Barrera. I am the father of four children living in Sudbury MA. My youngest is a freshman at Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School (LSRHS). I am writing this letter in support of Cara Endyke-Doran’s campaign for continued representation on the LSRHS School Committee. I have known Cara for the past five years. Our daughters became friends in high school and have remained close even though they are many miles apart in their respective colleges.

Cara is an exemplary School Committee member, eager to take on leadership challenges including acting as the current Chair. Her extensive professional experience in global childhood and adolescent health helped to make LSRHS a leader in school pool testing enabling our children to return to school quickly while not sacrificing their safety during the pandemic.

I have always known Cara to be a caring and thoughtful person. Cara and her husband Miguel have had four children in the Sudbury school system, with her two youngest at LSRHS today. They are both active and involved parents. This is true not just on the School Committee but also in school athletics. Cara is an engaged parent who spends time getting to know the friends and teammates of her children, giving her an insider’s perspective on what happens within the school.

Cara is an inclusive person who actively listens to the different perspectives that arise from the three communities of Sudbury, Lincoln, and Boston and makes sure all voices are heard and considered by the Committee.

In short, Cara is an excellent steward for the well-being of our students at Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School. She is professional, caring, and above all committed to the continued success of our students’ education.

It is with great respect that I fully endorse Cara Endyke-Doran for another term on the Lincoln Sudbury Regional High School Committee. She has earned it.

—Peter Barrera, Sudbury
